StageDive exists to help creators reach a wider audience, and make a living doing what they love. Other platforms require a large following, and millions of streams to make enough ad revenue to make a living. StageDive does not play ads among our creators’ content. We provide a subscription-based model where listeners can discover new music, comedy, and commentary. Whenever creators make content to attract a listener’s attention, the creator has earned a portion of that listener’s subscription. Doesn’t that just make the most sense for everyone involved? We think so. REACH YOUR AUDIENCE Put your voice out there, and see who is interested. You have a unique perspective, and the world needs to hear from you. GET PAID TO CREATE The more listeners you attract, the more subscription revenue you earn. Yes it is that simple! WORKING TOGETHER Creators get the benefit of access to listeners, and earn a share of each listener’s subscription by releasing engaging content. WHY CHOOSE US? Because your voice matters to us, and our mission is to amplify you. REMOVING BARRIERS We partner with you from the start to help you build the reach you are looking for. Your job is to do what you love – Share your creative works, be it music, comedy or commentary. Through the evolution of the music and content creation industries, business norms which benefit small groups of industry giants have formed, crowding out the voices of independent creators and their loyal followers. StageDive exists to disrupt these norms, and to empower the voices of the creators and listeners – the true stakeholders of content creation. YOUR CONTENT, YOUR WAY. GET ON STAGE AND TAKE THE DIVE! This is to submit your information to be part of a beta test/ Early Adopter’s group for StageDive. Please provide the following information, so we can get started queueing you up to participate in the early stages of this platform.
